Another #puregotk #Go #GTK bindings fix: Callbacks that contain strings (think `Settings.ConnectChanged`, `AdwDialog.ConnectResponse`) now correctly convert them from C strings to Go strings: https://github.com/pojntfx/puregotk/tree/fix-c-to-go-calls Will cherry-pick & PR tomorrow.

Managed to get #WebKitGTK to work with #puregotk . Just needed to add a small tweak since it was mixing up `gio.Byte` with `[]byte`. I think that makes it one of the first full-featured, CGo-free WebView libraries for Go?

Ha, ran into a #WebKitGTK quirk today while extending the #puregotk generator to work with it: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=175937 Workaround for now: https://github.com/pojntfx/ledger/commit/5a1608f4501f39500f0faf004d362b7b6cbd26ae

Funnily enough I ran into this exact problem with my own Go-based GObject library. Initialising them in `main` (yes, in a library!) fixed it there!

One or two days left until the next #puregotk #Go #GNOME upstreaming PR. I've imported my examples for how to do subclassing with Golang, creating a custom GObject introspection-compatible library and so on into the upstream repo, and I've started writing documentation.

Since it is getting late I will probably finish it tomorrow, but it's getting easier and easier for people to try now I think :)

New, soon-to-be upstreamed #puregotk #GNOME work today: A Meson-free/pure Go & Flatpak environment for building GNOME apps in Go as an alternative to the Meson one! Now I just have to rename them, git-subtree-split them out of the repo,

Now I just have to rename them, git-subtree-split them out of the repo, and upstream it to the bindings and then these can become Foundry/Builder templates :)

New #gogettext (my #puregotk -based gettext bindings for Go) release! v0.2.0 now supports `BindI18n` and `dgettext` to allow scoping gettext translation domains in a more fine-grained way.

New #gogettext (my #puregotk -based gettext bindings for Go) release! v0.2.0 now supports `BindI18n` and `dgettext` to allow scoping gettext translation domains in a more fine-grained way. This allows using two different translation domains in more complex scenarios, such as a Go GObject library and a Go #GNOME app where both vendor their own translations.

New library docs: https://github.com/pojntfx/go-gettext?tab=readme-ov-file#for-libraries

New #puregotk #GNOME hacking milestone: A GObject library built with Go can now be installed as a simple Meson module in Flatpak (fully offline/with tracked dependencies, so this should work for Flatpak too), and then be used by any GIR-compatible language (Go, JS, Python etc.).

New #puregotk #GNOME hacking milestone: A GObject library built with Go can now be installed as a simple Meson module in Flatpak (fully offline/with tracked dependencies, so this should work for Flathub too), and then be used by any GIR-compatible language (Go, JS, Python etc.). Even i18n with `gettext` (with translations vendored via the library) works!
